ECS 2200 - Principles and Practices for Teaching Children (3) Review historical roots of early childhood programs and the evolution of the professional practices promoting advocacy, ethics, and professional identity. The theoretical principles (e.g., developmental theory, constructivist theory, and ecological theory) and approaches (e.g., Montessori, Waldorf, Reggio Emilia) of early education and care will be examined. The close relationship between observation, planning, implementation, and assessment will be underlined as a means for enhancing children’s development and learning. Emphasize the key role of play and relationship-based constructive adult-child interactions in supporting children’s physical, social, emotional, intellectual, and language development.
